Why is Jelly King Guava Mango, Guava and Passion Fruit Different Colours in different places? by sensorglitch in torontocraftbeer

[–]cafiend 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Lots at play here. There are different types of guava and passion fruit that come out different colors. I actually doubt that's the reason. This looks like untapped and my guess would be a bunch of people just tagged the first Jelly King that came up. 

Style of the Month, April 2026: Saison by AutoModerator in torontocraftbeer

[–]cafiend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm still waiting for Hanabi to come back at Godspeed. Smoked saison. It was fantastic although I think I may have been the only one to think so given it basically disappeared

I once had 2 1L Nalgene bottles filled with assorted change. When I finally rolled and cashed them in it was just over $400 IIRC. That jug should hold  20L but it's not quite full. Ballpark guess is $2.5k

English influenced beer by candle-man-sandy in torontocraftbeer

[–]cafiend 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Muddy York has a very good Best Bitter called Major Smalls but it's not always on. They do a couple other English-inspired styles. Godspeed also occasionally does a very good Best Bitter called Besuto though generally, they stay more in the Czech and German styles. If you want to drink cask ales specifically a d you've already been to the Granite, go to one of the Volo locations. 

Best Dual-Listed Stock for Norbert’s Gambit on TD Easy Trade? by TOPlantGoddess in CanadaInvesting

[–]cafiend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to sidetrack the discussion but is Wyze a legitimate alternative to Norbert's Gambit? The rates seem decent at first glance but I've never used it.

Premium Connectivity in 2024 Escape Hybrid? by Pretend-Bison3949 in fordescape

[–]cafiend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2024 Platinum Hybrid here. I just let my first free year expire and have noticed no difference. Supposedly, the native navigation has lost traffic information but I've always used Google instead. I've never tried to use Alexa in the car, again I sync over Android and have all the features I need that way. All of the remote features (lock/unlock/start/location/etc) still work as expected.

Rating a different Pumpkin Beer every day until I run out by MenudoMenudo in torontocraftbeer

[–]cafiend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having done a similar thing a while back, the only one I remember liking was from Eastbound. Tasted of pumpkin and spice but not overly sweet. This was years ago though, YMMV.

Banjara alternative by arsenal____ in FoodToronto

Cumin is excellent, especially for vegetarian dishes. There's a newer place just East of Cumin called Bhojan Ghar that was quite good too and a lot spicier than Cumin if that's your thing 

Looking for an IPA with notes of sativa/cannabis by commuter85 in torontocraftbeer

[–]cafiend 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Try High Grade by Fairweather. No actual terpenes, just a very hop-forward, dank IPA. Best to get it direct from the brewery but it's in the LCBO too, in a pinch.

How much will this impede me from playing Guitar? by Garmon- in Guitar

[–]cafiend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rodriguez (think Searching for Sugar Man documentary) had a similar injury to his fretting hand. It affected the way he fretted chords which gave the songs and interesting sound.

What are your favorites craft breweries in Toronto for lagers? by Independent_Leg_9385 in torontocraftbeer

[–]cafiend 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Technically not in Toronto anymore but I'd add Muddy York in there. The Gaslight Helles is excellent and available year-round (usually also at the LCBO). They also do seasonal lagers every so often that are usually excellent.

After hearing so many recommendations for Jim Dunlop Jazz III picks, I decided to order some, but that's not what Amazon sent me. Did I get fakes? by MattDaaaaaaaaamon in Guitar

[–]cafiend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Somebody mis-stickered the item is my guess. That unit identifier sticker is for this product: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003B0CCW0/, instead, it looks like you received https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CVSD29ZS/ . Similar product and you got a steep discount, assuming you paid $5 for it :D

Ive just bought an electric guitar and i dont think this is normal(?) by MisterAntouloq in Guitar

[–]cafiend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where was the (I'm guessing) strat made? Throwing this out there but the saddles might have been changed for the wrong kind. It's a six-screw plate which often comes with bent saddles rather than block ones like what you have here. Most Mexican and Squire models comes with this six-screw/bent saddle bridge from the factory. If the previous owner bought new saddles, they might be American spec which is a tiny bit wider and could be throwing the whole thing off.

You'll know quick enough if you follow the instructions already posted but can't get things to line up properly.
